Here is the backport. It needs to be applied after the backport of
4b639e254d3d ("regulator: avoid resolve_supply() infinite recursion")
which is in the separate 'failed' mail.

Subject: [PATCH] regulator: workaround self-referent regulators
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
commit f5c042b23f7429e5c2ac987b01a31c69059a978b upstream
Workaround regulators whose supply name happens to be the same as its
own name. This fixes boards that used to work before the early supply
resolving was removed. The error message is left in place so that
offending drivers can be detected.
Fixes: aea6cb99703e ("regulator: resolve supply after creating regulator")
